Common Carrier Stats Released

Everything you ever wanted to know about wired phones is in this book. Since 1939, the FCC has published the "Statistics of Communications Common Carriers," a reference work that includes data ontelecommunications costs, revenues, prices, and use. The agency is making all of the data available electronically at this time, before the report's December publication. A second notice will be issued when printed versions can be purchased from the U.S. Government Printing Office. The electronic version is free to the public and may be downloaded from the FCC-State Link Internet site at www.fcc.gov/wcb/stats. Printed versions may be purchased from the commission's duplicatingcontractor, Best Copy and Printing, Inc., via their Web site at www.bcpiweb.com.
